00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:36.179
I<00:00:32.659><c> think</c><00:00:32.979><c> if</c><00:00:33.380><c> we</c><00:00:33.600><c> go</c><00:00:33.820><c> back</c><00:00:34.039><c> to</c><00:00:34.280><c> our</c><00:00:34.520><c> Sunday</c><00:00:34.799><c> school</c><00:00:35.140><c> days</c>

00:00:39.060 --> 00:00:43.000
I<00:00:39.619><c> hope</c><00:00:39.820><c> we</c><00:00:40.039><c> wouldn't.</c><00:00:40.939><c> When</c><00:00:41.140><c> we</c><00:00:41.439><c> say,</c><00:00:42.259><c> you</c><00:00:42.420><c> know,</c><00:00:42.539><c> where</c><00:00:42.799><c> did</c>

the<00:00:43.240><c> division</c><00:00:43.579><c> start?</c>

00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:48.259
What<00:00:44.899><c> was</c><00:00:45.240><c> the</c><00:00:45.500><c> cause</c><00:00:45.700><c> of</c><00:00:45.920><c> the</c><00:00:46.100><c> division?</c><00:00:46.619><c> What</c><00:00:46.659><c> was</c><00:00:47.179><c> the</c><00:00:47.420><c> problem?</c>

And<00:00:48.719><c> of</c><00:00:48.960><c> course</c><00:00:49.200><c> we</c><00:00:49.539><c> would</c><00:00:49.780><c> all</c><00:00:49.960><c> answer,</c><00:00:51.060><c> the</c><00:00:51.259><c> answer</c><00:00:51.600><c> came</c>

00:00:52.460 --> 00:00:55.619
the<00:00:53.600><c> reason</c><00:00:53.920><c> was</c><00:00:54.740><c> Rehoboam</c>

00:00:55.619 --> 00:00:59.679
and<00:00:56.340><c> Jeroboam.</c><00:00:59.000><c> Jeroboam</c>

00:01:02.060 --> 00:01:05.680
all<00:01:02.719><c> these</c><00:01:04.719><c> taxes</c>

00:01:05.819 --> 00:01:09.180
and<00:01:06.280><c> the</c><00:01:06.459><c> people</c><00:01:06.719><c> eventually</c><00:01:07.319><c> rebelled.</c>

00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:14.359
Solomon<00:01:10.219><c> was,</c><00:01:11.680><c> I</c><00:01:11.680><c> mean</c><00:01:11.840><c> Ephraim</c><00:01:12.260><c> was</c><00:01:12.420><c> the</c><00:01:12.640><c> breadbasket</c>

00:01:14.900 --> 00:01:17.500
and<00:01:15.579><c> Jerusalem</c><00:01:16.019><c> was</c><00:01:16.260><c> the</c><00:01:16.439><c> spendthrift</c>

00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:20.560
and<00:01:18.400><c> ultimately</c><00:01:19.000><c> Ephraim,</c><00:01:19.519><c> Israel</c><00:01:19.799><c> is</c><00:01:19.939><c> going</c><00:01:20.040><c> to</c><00:01:20.140><c> get</c><00:01:20.319><c> tired</c>

00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:21.120
of<00:01:20.700><c> this</c>

00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.840
and<00:01:21.780><c> they</c><00:01:22.000><c> said</c><00:01:22.120><c> we're</c><00:01:22.439><c> making</c><00:01:22.739><c> all</c><00:01:22.959><c> the</c><00:01:23.060><c> money</c><00:01:23.420><c> and</c><00:01:23.659><c> you're</c>

00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:28.299
So<00:01:25.519><c> we've</c><00:01:26.739><c> got</c><00:01:26.819><c> to</c><00:01:26.920><c> do</c><00:01:27.000><c> something</c><00:01:27.239><c> about</c><00:01:27.500><c> it.</c>

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:31.680
And<00:01:28.920><c> that's</c><00:01:29.180><c> where</c><00:01:29.319><c> we</c><00:01:29.500><c> come</c><00:01:29.640><c> from</c><00:01:29.819><c> our</c><00:01:30.000><c> Sunday</c><00:01:30.200><c> school</c><00:01:30.400><c> days,</c><00:01:31.239><c> Rehoboam</c>

00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:48.719
But<00:01:46.280><c> the</c><00:01:47.379><c> division</c><00:01:47.959><c> started</c>

00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:51.500

And<00:31:11.599><c> if</c><00:31:11.740><c> you've</c><00:31:11.859><c> been</c><00:31:12.039><c> in</c><00:31:12.200><c> the</c><00:31:12.359><c> faith</c><00:31:12.500><c> for</c><00:31:12.720><c> 40</c><00:31:13.079><c> years</c>

00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:15.480
you've<00:31:13.619><c> read</c><00:31:13.759><c> this</c><00:31:13.980><c> 40</c><00:31:14.339><c> times.</c>

00:31:15.700 --> 00:31:17.180
You<00:31:15.779><c> should</c><00:31:15.940><c> know</c><00:31:16.099><c> the</c><00:31:16.259><c> answer.</c>

00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:20.539
Why<00:31:18.420><c> was</c><00:31:18.720><c> David</c><00:31:19.140><c> so</c><00:31:19.599><c> confident?</c>

00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:23.000
Why<00:31:21.200><c> did</c><00:31:21.380><c> he</c><00:31:21.559><c> run</c><00:31:21.799><c> to</c><00:31:22.000><c> the</c><00:31:22.160><c> giant?</c>

00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:27.920
Why<00:31:25.299><c> didn't</c><00:31:25.579><c> his</c><00:31:25.859><c> brothers</c><00:31:26.279><c> give</c><00:31:26.539><c> him</c><00:31:26.720><c> some</c><00:31:27.000><c> stones?</c>

00:31:28.779 --> 00:31:31.380
Well,<00:31:29.140><c> let's</c><00:31:29.380><c> start</c><00:31:29.539><c> with</c><00:31:29.759><c> the</c><00:31:29.839><c> easy</c><00:31:30.079><c> one</c><00:31:30.319><c> first.</c>

00:31:32.140 --> 00:31:35.140
The<00:31:32.299><c> place</c><00:31:32.480><c> where</c><00:31:32.740><c> the</c><00:31:32.940><c> Philistines</c><00:31:33.440><c> camped,</c>

00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:37.480
you<00:31:35.839><c> can</c><00:31:36.160><c> go</c><00:31:36.339><c> there</c><00:31:36.519><c> today,</c><00:31:36.799><c> I've</c><00:31:36.880><c> been</c><00:31:37.039><c> there,</c>

00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:39.619
here's<00:31:38.180><c> the</c><00:31:38.299><c> hill</c><00:31:38.440><c> where</c><00:31:38.640><c> the</c><00:31:38.779><c> Philistines</c><00:31:39.220><c> were,</c>

00:31:39.980 --> 00:31:42.579
there's<00:31:40.299><c> the</c><00:31:40.460><c> brook,</c><00:31:41.079><c> and</c><00:31:41.200><c> there's</c><00:31:42.339><c> the</c><00:31:42.460><c> camp</c>

00:31:42.579 --> 00:31:44.640
where<00:31:42.799><c> the</c><00:31:43.079><c> Israelites</c><00:31:43.460><c> were.</c>

00:31:44.819 --> 00:31:48.359
From<00:31:45.079><c> here</c><00:31:45.339><c> to</c><00:31:45.539><c> Bethlehem,</c><00:31:46.960><c> 12</c><00:31:47.220><c> miles.</c>

00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:50.940
David<00:31:49.359><c> was</c><00:31:49.640><c> on</c><00:31:49.819><c> home</c><00:31:50.119><c> turf.</c>

00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:54.079
He<00:31:51.920><c> knew</c><00:31:52.099><c> the</c><00:31:52.259><c> area</c><00:31:52.500><c> like</c><00:31:52.720><c> the</c><00:31:52.819><c> back</c><00:31:53.000><c> of</c><00:31:53.140><c> his</c><00:31:53.319><c> hand.</c>

00:31:54.740 --> 00:31:56.880
He<00:31:54.920><c> knew</c><00:31:55.140><c> that</c><00:31:55.380><c> his</c><00:31:55.539><c> brothers</c><00:31:55.799><c> didn't</c><00:31:56.039><c> have</c><00:31:56.200><c> to</c><00:31:56.380><c> find</c><00:31:56.599><c> stones</c>

00:31:56.880 --> 00:31:59.119
because<00:31:57.420><c> many,</c><00:31:58.039><c> many</c><00:31:58.279><c> a</c><00:31:58.460><c> time</c><00:31:58.579><c> I</c><00:31:58.720><c> should</c><00:31:58.940><c> think</c>

00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:00.839
he'd<00:31:59.539><c> taken</c><00:31:59.779><c> stones</c><00:32:00.059><c> from</c><00:32:00.299><c> the</c><00:32:00.440><c> brook</c>

00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:02.680
to<00:32:01.140><c> scare</c><00:32:01.420><c> off</c><00:32:01.660><c> wild</c><00:32:01.819><c> animals</c><00:32:02.119><c> or</c>

00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:04.859
bring<00:32:02.960><c> that</c><00:32:03.200><c> sheep</c><00:32:03.339><c> back</c><00:32:03.619><c> nearer</c><00:32:03.920><c> to</c><00:32:04.019><c> me.</c>

00:32:05.140 --> 00:32:06.839
He<00:32:05.539><c> was</c><00:32:05.720><c> an</c><00:32:05.859><c> expert.</c>

00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:09.599
So<00:32:07.680><c> these</c><00:32:08.180><c> questions</c><00:32:08.599><c> really</c><00:32:08.960><c> ought</c><00:32:09.099><c> to</c><00:32:09.200><c> be</c><00:32:09.380><c> asked</c>

00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:11.259
and<00:32:09.759><c> really</c><00:32:09.940><c> ought</c><00:32:10.099><c> to</c><00:32:10.200><c> be</c><00:32:10.400><c> faced.</c>

00:32:11.720 --> 00:32:15.700
Why<00:32:11.900><c> was</c><00:32:12.200><c> it</c><00:32:13.680><c> David</c><00:32:14.799><c> was</c><00:32:15.019><c> so</c><00:32:15.220><c> confident?</c>

00:32:16.059 --> 00:32:17.079
Have<00:32:16.140><c> you</c><00:32:16.240><c> got</c><00:32:16.440><c> faith</c><00:32:16.680><c> in</c><00:32:16.880><c> God?</c>

00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:20.059
Please,<00:32:18.140><c> let's</c><00:32:18.460><c> just</c><00:32:18.599><c> put</c><00:32:18.740><c> that</c><00:32:18.920><c> on</c><00:32:19.099><c> one</c><00:32:19.339><c> side</c><00:32:19.480><c> for</c><00:32:19.680><c> the</c><00:32:19.799><c> moment.</c>

00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:23.319
Because<00:32:20.680><c> faith</c><00:32:20.920><c> is</c><00:32:21.119><c> something</c><00:32:21.339><c> on</c><00:32:21.559><c> which</c><00:32:21.700><c> you</c><00:32:21.859><c> need</c><00:32:22.059><c> to</c><00:32:22.240><c> hang</c><00:32:22.400><c> facts.</c>

00:32:23.940 --> 00:32:25.619
Don't<00:32:24.099><c> get</c><00:32:24.240><c> saying</c><00:32:24.420><c> to</c><00:32:24.579><c> me,</c><00:32:24.660><c> I've</c><00:32:24.759><c> got</c><00:32:24.940><c> faith</c><00:32:25.200><c> in</c><00:32:25.420><c> God.</c>

00:32:26.059 --> 00:32:28.180
Why<00:32:26.380><c> have</c><00:32:26.819><c> you</c><00:32:26.900><c> got</c><00:32:27.079><c> faith</c><00:32:27.299><c> in</c><00:32:27.500><c> God?</c>

00:32:28.259 --> 00:32:29.500
I've<00:32:28.420><c> got</c><00:32:28.559><c> faith</c><00:32:28.740><c> in</c><00:32:28.900><c> God.</c>

00:32:29.539 --> 00:32:31.559
You<00:32:29.720><c> see,</c><00:32:29.880><c> David</c><00:32:30.220><c> could</c><00:32:30.440><c> have</c><00:32:30.559><c> given</c><00:32:30.680><c> a</c><00:32:30.839><c> very</c><00:32:31.039><c> good</c><00:32:31.220><c> reason</c>

00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:32.279
for<00:32:31.759><c> his</c><00:32:31.980><c> faith.</c>

00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:34.460
He<00:32:32.279><c> was</c><00:32:33.240><c> almost</c><00:32:33.500><c> as</c><00:32:33.819><c> tall</c><00:32:34.000><c> as</c><00:32:34.259><c> Saul</c>

00:32:34.460 --> 00:32:36.420
and<00:32:35.119><c> Saul</c><00:32:35.380><c> said,</c><00:32:35.700><c> put</c><00:32:35.759><c> my</c><00:32:36.019><c> armour</c><00:32:36.220><c> on</c>

00:32:36.420 --> 00:32:38.400
and<00:32:36.539><c> David</c><00:32:36.819><c> said,</c><00:32:37.240><c> oh</c><00:32:37.240><c> God,</c><00:32:37.779><c> this</c><00:32:37.900><c> is</c><00:32:37.980><c> useless.</c>

00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:40.099
It<00:32:38.900><c> didn't</c><00:32:39.220><c> sound</c><00:32:39.400><c> like</c><00:32:39.660><c> a</c><00:32:39.779><c> robot.</c>

00:32:40.380 --> 00:32:41.579
He<00:32:40.500><c> said,</c><00:32:40.700><c> I</c><00:32:40.759><c> haven't</c><00:32:41.019><c> tried</c><00:32:41.299><c> it.</c>

00:32:41.619 --> 00:32:43.440
Almost<00:32:41.960><c> as</c><00:32:42.279><c> tall</c><00:32:42.440><c> as</c><00:32:42.640><c> Saul.</c>

00:32:43.819 --> 00:32:46.500
And<00:32:44.019><c> Saul</c><00:32:44.259><c> should</c><00:32:44.460><c> have</c><00:32:44.559><c> been</c><00:32:44.700><c> the</c><00:32:44.799><c> one</c><00:32:45.079><c> facing</c><00:32:45.420><c> the</c><00:32:45.680><c> giant.</c>

00:32:46.799 --> 00:32:48.339
He<00:32:46.920><c> was</c><00:32:47.099><c> the</c><00:32:47.220><c> tallest</c><00:32:47.480><c> man</c><00:32:47.700><c> in</c><00:32:47.900><c> Israel</c>

00:32:48.339 --> 00:32:50.319
but<00:32:48.740><c> he</c><00:32:48.880><c> was</c><00:32:49.079><c> in</c><00:32:49.200><c> his</c><00:32:49.420><c> tent.</c>

00:32:53.019 --> 00:32:55.700
So<00:32:53.200><c> David</c><00:32:53.420><c> winds</c><00:32:53.759><c> his</c><00:32:54.039><c> mind</c><00:32:54.220><c> back</c>

00:32:55.819 --> 00:32:57.839
a<00:32:56.299><c> few</c><00:32:56.440><c> hundred</c><00:32:56.759><c> years</c>

00:32:58.220 --> 00:33:00.279
and<00:32:58.700><c> comes</c><00:32:58.960><c> to</c><00:32:59.200><c> the</c><00:32:59.440><c> time</c><00:32:59.720><c> when</c>

00:33:00.279 --> 00:33:03.640
Joshua<00:33:01.480><c> comes</c><00:33:01.839><c> into</c><00:33:02.140><c> the</c><00:33:02.319><c> land.</c>

00:33:05.380 --> 00:33:07.140
Joshua<00:33:05.859><c> pitches</c><00:33:06.220><c> in</c><00:33:06.579><c> Gilgal</c>

00:33:07.140 --> 00:33:09.579
which<00:33:08.000><c> is</c><00:33:08.880><c> sea</c><00:33:09.160><c> level</c>

00:33:09.980 --> 00:33:11.779
next<00:33:10.480><c> to</c><00:33:10.720><c> Jericho.</c>

00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:13.440
Defeats<00:33:12.799><c> Jericho</c>

00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:15.640
and<00:33:14.099><c> eventually</c><00:33:14.599><c> Ai.</c>

00:33:17.319 --> 00:33:21.559
So<00:33:18.160><c> many,</c><00:33:18.940><c> so</c><00:33:19.440><c> much</c><00:33:19.680><c> lovely</c><00:33:20.180><c> scripture</c><00:33:20.599><c> here.</c>

00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:23.660
Just<00:33:22.140><c> one</c><00:33:22.440><c> little</c><00:33:22.720><c> deviation,</c><00:33:23.380><c> I</c><00:33:23.380><c> promise</c><00:33:23.539><c> you.</c>

00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:24.960
I<00:33:23.740><c> won't</c><00:33:23.859><c> go</c><00:33:24.519><c> over</c><00:33:24.740><c> time.</c>

00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:26.660
One<00:33:25.460><c> little</c><00:33:25.720><c> deviation.</c>

00:33:27.259 --> 00:33:30.420
Why<00:33:27.660><c> didn't</c><00:33:28.019><c> God</c><00:33:28.319><c> accept</c><00:33:28.740><c> the</c><00:33:28.980><c> apology</c><00:33:29.359><c> of</c><00:33:29.660><c> Achan?</c>

00:33:32.420 --> 00:33:34.440
I<00:33:32.579><c> mean,</c><00:33:32.619><c> you'll</c><00:33:32.819><c> find</c><00:33:33.059><c> no</c><00:33:33.480><c> better</c><00:33:33.819><c> confession</c>

00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:37.720
I'm<00:33:36.160><c> telling</c><00:33:36.299><c> you,</c><00:33:36.400><c> I've</c><00:33:36.579><c> tried</c><00:33:36.779><c> it.</c>

00:33:37.779 --> 00:33:39.559
You'll<00:33:38.059><c> find</c><00:33:38.220><c> no</c><00:33:38.519><c> better</c><00:33:38.980><c> confession</c>

00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:43.559
Joshua<00:33:42.119><c> comes</c><00:33:42.380><c> in</c><00:33:42.519><c> and</c><00:33:42.579><c> he</c><00:33:42.680><c> says,</c><00:33:42.759><c> what</c><00:33:42.900><c> have</c><00:33:43.019><c> you</c><00:33:43.059><c> done,</c><00:33:43.319><c> Achan?</c>

00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:47.559
He<00:33:43.700><c> said,</c><00:33:44.039><c> I</c><00:33:45.000><c> saw</c><00:33:45.319><c> the</c><00:33:46.460><c> goodly</c><00:33:46.740><c> Babylonian</c><00:33:47.180><c> garment.</c>

00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:49.220
I<00:33:48.000><c> saw</c><00:33:48.180><c> the</c><00:33:48.380><c> silver,</c><00:33:48.660><c> I</c><00:33:48.700><c> saw</c><00:33:48.859><c> the</c><00:33:49.059><c> gold</c>

00:33:49.220 --> 00:33:51.160
and<00:33:49.519><c> I</c><00:33:49.740><c> coveted</c><00:33:50.079><c> them</c><00:33:50.319><c> and</c><00:33:50.500><c> I</c><00:33:50.740><c> took</c><00:33:50.880><c> them</c>

00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:52.740
and<00:33:51.359><c> they're</c><00:33:51.599><c> in</c><00:33:51.680><c> the</c><00:33:51.859><c> ground</c><00:33:52.059><c> under</c><00:33:52.299><c> my</c><00:33:52.519><c> tent.</c>

00:33:52.740 --> 00:33:55.440
Now<00:33:53.240><c> that's</c><00:33:53.559><c> a</c><00:33:53.759><c> pretty</c><00:33:54.039><c> good</c><00:33:54.400><c> confession.</c>

00:33:56.740 --> 00:33:57.680
You<00:33:56.799><c> won't</c><00:33:57.019><c> find</c><00:33:57.180><c> a</c><00:33:57.359><c> better</c><00:33:57.539><c> one</c>

00:33:57.680 --> 00:33:59.420

00:33:59.779 --> 00:34:00.799
And<00:33:59.859><c> yet</c><00:34:00.059><c> God</c><00:34:00.200><c> said</c><00:34:00.420><c> to</c><00:34:00.579><c> him,</c>

00:34:01.059 --> 00:34:02.559
take<00:34:01.119><c> him</c><00:34:01.279><c> out</c><00:34:01.480><c> and</c><00:34:01.740><c> stone</c><00:34:01.940><c> him</c>

00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:10.460
and<00:34:08.800><c> he's</c><00:34:09.039><c> called</c><00:34:09.239><c> the</c><00:34:09.599><c> Valley</c><00:34:09.880><c> of</c><00:34:10.159><c> Acre</c>

00:34:10.460 --> 00:34:11.480
unto<00:34:10.760><c> this</c><00:34:11.139><c> day.</c>

00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:14.320
Oh,<00:34:12.039><c> I</c><00:34:12.199><c> feel</c><00:34:12.380><c> sorry</c><00:34:12.679><c> for</c><00:34:12.920><c> Achan,</c><00:34:13.320><c> don't</c><00:34:13.460><c> you?</c>

00:34:14.800 --> 00:34:17.239
Until<00:34:15.159><c> you</c><00:34:15.320><c> put</c><00:34:15.480><c> the</c><00:34:15.739><c> magnifying</c><00:34:16.239><c> glass</c><00:34:16.460><c> on</c><00:34:16.679><c> it</c>

00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:19.460
and<00:34:17.639><c> you</c><00:34:17.900><c> find</c><00:34:18.079><c> that</c><00:34:18.239><c> he</c><00:34:18.340><c> had</c><00:34:18.519><c> five</c><00:34:18.840><c> opportunities</c>

00:34:19.460 --> 00:34:20.699
to<00:34:19.780><c> confess</c><00:34:20.099><c> and</c><00:34:20.360><c> repent</c>

00:34:20.699 --> 00:34:22.380
and<00:34:21.119><c> he</c><00:34:21.300><c> ignores</c><00:34:21.639><c> them</c><00:34:21.880><c> all.</c>

00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:24.539
The<00:34:22.699><c> first</c><00:34:22.940><c> one</c><00:34:23.119><c> is</c><00:34:23.219><c> when</c><00:34:23.440><c> Joshua</c><00:34:23.739><c> says</c>

00:34:24.579 --> 00:34:27.920
there's<00:34:24.800><c> corruption</c><00:34:25.260><c> in</c><00:34:26.239><c> the</c><00:34:27.019><c> whole</c><00:34:27.400><c> army,</c>

00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:28.920
in<00:34:28.119><c> the</c><00:34:28.239><c> whole</c><00:34:28.440><c> land.</c>

00:34:29.380 --> 00:34:30.860
Two<00:34:29.500><c> and</c><00:34:29.599><c> a</c><00:34:29.659><c> half</c><00:34:29.719><c> million</c><00:34:29.980><c> people.</c>

00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:33.320
I<00:34:31.079><c> can</c><00:34:31.340><c> hide</c><00:34:31.579><c> behind</c><00:34:31.880><c> two</c><00:34:32.099><c> and</c><00:34:32.199><c> a</c><00:34:32.340><c> half</c><00:34:32.360><c> million</c><00:34:32.599><c> people.</c>

00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:37.820
You're<00:34:35.639><c> never</c><00:34:35.800><c> going</c><00:34:35.940><c> to</c><00:34:36.139><c> point</c><00:34:36.280><c> me</c><00:34:36.480><c> out,</c><00:34:36.840><c> is</c><00:34:36.900><c> he?</c>

00:34:38.820 --> 00:34:39.960
Then<00:34:39.059><c> he</c><00:34:39.159><c> comes</c><00:34:39.380><c> to</c><00:34:39.579><c> his</c><00:34:39.800><c> tribe</c>

00:34:39.960 --> 00:34:41.099
and<00:34:40.099><c> then</c><00:34:40.239><c> he</c><00:34:40.320><c> comes</c><00:34:40.460><c> to</c><00:34:40.639><c> his</c><00:34:40.739><c> family</c>

00:34:41.099 --> 00:34:42.139
and<00:34:41.239><c> then</c><00:34:41.400><c> he</c><00:34:41.559><c> comes</c><00:34:41.739><c> to</c><00:34:41.940><c> him.</c>

00:34:42.340 --> 00:34:44.440
Five<00:34:42.679><c> times</c><00:34:43.019><c> he's</c><00:34:43.219><c> had</c><00:34:43.400><c> an</c><00:34:43.400><c> opportunity</c><00:34:43.800><c> to</c><00:34:44.059><c> confess</c>

00:34:44.440 --> 00:34:46.400
and<00:34:44.860><c> when</c><00:34:45.099><c> Joshua,</c><00:34:45.519><c> forgive</c><00:34:46.119><c> me,</c>

00:34:46.539 --> 00:34:48.480
when<00:34:46.679><c> Joshua</c><00:34:47.159><c> eventually</c><00:34:47.619><c> calls</c><00:34:47.900><c> him</c><00:34:48.079><c> before</c><00:34:48.340><c> him</c>

00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:49.900
and<00:34:48.480><c> says,</c><00:34:49.000><c> confess,</c><00:34:49.539><c> my</c><00:34:49.739><c> son.</c>

00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:52.380
He<00:34:50.559><c> makes</c><00:34:50.699><c> a</c><00:34:50.880><c> full</c><00:34:51.099><c> confession.</c><00:34:51.699><c> I'll</c><00:34:51.860><c> tell</c><00:34:51.960><c> you</c><00:34:52.099><c> what.</c>

00:34:52.739 --> 00:34:54.300
It's<00:34:52.980><c> one</c><00:34:53.260><c> thing</c><00:34:53.460><c> to</c><00:34:53.639><c> make</c><00:34:53.800><c> a</c><00:34:54.079><c> confession</c>

00:34:54.300 --> 00:34:55.880
when<00:34:54.460><c> you've</c><00:34:54.739><c> found</c><00:34:54.940><c> out.</c>

00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:58.300
It's<00:34:56.920><c> another</c><00:34:57.119><c> thing</c><00:34:57.340><c> to</c><00:34:57.500><c> make</c><00:34:57.679><c> a</c><00:34:57.940><c> confession</c>

00:34:58.300 --> 00:35:00.679
before<00:34:59.159><c> you've</c><00:34:59.440><c> found</c><00:34:59.679><c> out.</c>

00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:02.980
And<00:35:01.599><c> it's</c><00:35:01.880><c> the</c><00:35:02.000><c> latter</c><00:35:02.239><c> that</c><00:35:02.460><c> God</c><00:35:02.659><c> likes,</c>

00:35:03.079 --> 00:35:04.099
not<00:35:03.199><c> the</c><00:35:03.400><c> former.</c>

00:35:04.679 --> 00:35:06.699
God<00:35:04.880><c> will</c><00:35:05.139><c> forgive</c><00:35:05.380><c> you</c><00:35:05.559><c> if</c><00:35:05.739><c> you</c><00:35:05.880><c> confess.</c>

00:35:06.860 --> 00:35:09.119
Ever<00:35:07.300><c> before</c><00:35:07.739><c> the</c><00:35:08.000><c> day</c><00:35:08.219><c> of</c><00:35:08.440><c> judgment</c><00:35:08.699><c> comes</c>

00:35:09.119 --> 00:35:11.260
and<00:35:09.760><c> you're</c><00:35:09.960><c> whistled</c><00:35:10.179><c> up</c><00:35:10.380><c> to</c><00:35:10.579><c> stand</c><00:35:10.699><c> before</c><00:35:11.079><c> him</c>

00:35:11.260 --> 00:35:12.900
who<00:35:11.420><c> won't</c><00:35:11.599><c> be</c><00:35:11.739><c> fooled</c><00:35:11.860><c> by</c><00:35:12.139><c> what</c><00:35:12.360><c> he</c><00:35:12.599><c> sees</c>

00:35:12.900 --> 00:35:14.599
or<00:35:13.400><c> what</c><00:35:13.539><c> he</c><00:35:13.699><c> hears.</c>

00:35:15.500 --> 00:35:16.380
No,<00:35:15.780><c> confess</c><00:35:16.119><c> now.</c>

00:35:16.380 --> 00:35:19.239
That's<00:35:17.260><c> the</c><00:35:17.320><c> lesson</c><00:35:17.800><c> of</c><00:35:18.119><c> Achan.</c>

00:35:19.719 --> 00:35:20.880
And<00:35:19.800><c> so</c><00:35:19.940><c> they</c><00:35:20.119><c> come.</c>

00:35:21.679 --> 00:35:24.739
I'll<00:35:22.159><c> just</c><00:35:22.260><c> put</c><00:35:22.380><c> this</c><00:35:22.559><c> where</c><00:35:22.699><c> I</c><00:35:22.840><c> can</c><00:35:23.079><c> see</c><00:35:23.239><c> it.</c>

00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:26.980
And<00:35:25.699><c> so</c><00:35:25.800><c> they</c><00:35:25.940><c> come</c><00:35:26.239><c> to</c>

00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:34.760
and<00:35:33.940><c> they're</c><00:35:34.119><c> met</c><00:35:34.219><c> by</c><00:35:34.519><c> the,</c>

And<00:35:39.539><c> they</c><00:35:39.659><c> come</c><00:35:39.860><c> to</c><00:35:40.619><c> Joshua</c>

00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:44.860

On<00:40:10.679><c> the</c><00:40:11.079><c> back</c><00:40:11.199><c> of</c><00:40:11.380><c> your</c><00:40:11.519><c> head.</c>

00:40:12.099 --> 00:40:13.760
Oh<00:40:12.280><c> my</c><00:40:12.659><c> word.</c><00:40:13.320><c> No</c><00:40:13.539><c> wonder</c>

00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:14.820
the<00:40:14.039><c> angels,</c>

00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:17.579
the<00:40:16.059><c> hailstones</c><00:40:16.539><c> killed</c><00:40:16.820><c> more</c><00:40:17.099><c> than</c><00:40:17.260><c> the</c><00:40:17.440><c> sword</c>

00:40:17.579 --> 00:40:18.760

00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:21.900
And<00:40:20.880><c> they're</c><00:40:21.400><c> completely</c>

00:40:21.900 --> 00:40:23.039
victorious.

00:40:24.440 --> 00:40:27.119
When<00:40:25.239><c> they</c><00:40:25.420><c> came</c><00:40:25.679><c> to</c>

00:40:27.119 --> 00:40:28.119
Azika,<00:40:27.659><c> God</c><00:40:27.820><c> said,</c>

00:40:28.360 --> 00:40:30.420
leave<00:40:28.400><c> it</c><00:40:28.559><c> to</c><00:40:28.639><c> me,</c><00:40:28.739><c> I'll</c><00:40:28.840><c> do</c><00:40:29.000><c> it.</c>

00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:32.199
When<00:40:30.760><c> the</c><00:40:31.000><c> Philistines</c><00:40:31.559><c> came</c>

00:40:32.199 --> 00:40:34.500
and<00:40:32.619><c> camped</c><00:40:32.900><c> against</c><00:40:33.239><c> Israel,</c>

00:40:34.659 --> 00:40:36.059

00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:38.960
You've<00:40:37.300><c> guessed</c><00:40:37.500><c> it.</c>

00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:40.340
Azika.

00:40:41.239 --> 00:40:42.400
They<00:40:41.460><c> camped</c><00:40:41.840><c> exactly</c>

00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.500
where<00:40:43.139><c> God</c><00:40:43.480><c> had</c><00:40:43.780><c> destroyed</c>

00:40:44.500 --> 00:40:46.179
the<00:40:45.099><c> enemy</c><00:40:45.500><c> of</c><00:40:45.739><c> Joshua</c>

00:40:46.179 --> 00:40:47.760
with<00:40:46.719><c> hailstones</c><00:40:47.340><c> from</c><00:40:47.539><c> him.</c>

00:40:48.019 --> 00:40:50.260
The<00:40:48.639><c> very</c><00:40:49.099><c> place.</c>

00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:51.880
Azika.

00:40:51.940 --> 00:40:53.380
And<00:40:52.380><c> that's</c><00:40:52.699><c> why</c><00:40:52.900><c> David</c>

00:40:53.380 --> 00:40:55.639
knew<00:40:53.559><c> it.</c><00:40:54.820><c> And</c><00:40:54.920><c> that's</c><00:40:55.099><c> why</c><00:40:55.280><c> David</c>

00:40:55.639 --> 00:40:57.380
said<00:40:56.000><c> to</c><00:40:56.340><c> the</c><00:40:56.500><c> Philistines,</c><00:40:57.000><c> you've</c><00:40:57.239><c> written</c>

00:40:57.380 --> 00:40:58.639
here<00:40:57.559><c> and</c><00:40:57.699><c> death</c><00:40:57.900><c> warrant.</c>

00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:00.980
You've<00:40:59.679><c> signed</c><00:40:59.820><c> your</c><00:40:59.960><c> death</c><00:41:00.159><c> warrant</c><00:41:00.300><c> by</c><00:41:00.460><c> coming</c><00:41:00.739><c> here.</c>

00:41:01.139 --> 00:41:03.519
That's<00:41:01.400><c> why</c><00:41:01.519><c> he</c><00:41:01.599><c> was</c><00:41:01.780><c> confident.</c><00:41:02.440><c> Oh</c><00:41:02.579><c> he</c><00:41:02.619><c> had</c><00:41:02.800><c> faith</c><00:41:03.079><c> in</c><00:41:03.320><c> God.</c>

00:41:03.659 --> 00:41:05.739
He<00:41:03.860><c> also</c><00:41:04.039><c> knew</c><00:41:04.179><c> the</c><00:41:04.360><c> history</c><00:41:04.619><c> of</c><00:41:04.760><c> his</c><00:41:04.940><c> people.</c>

00:41:05.800 --> 00:41:07.639
And<00:41:06.019><c> so</c><00:41:06.179><c> God</c><00:41:06.400><c> delivered</c>

00:41:07.659 --> 00:41:09.099

00:41:09.179 --> 00:41:11.079
Just<00:41:09.559><c> look</c><00:41:09.719><c> what</c><00:41:09.900><c> you</c><00:41:10.159><c> have.</c>

00:41:11.579 --> 00:41:14.039
You<00:41:11.780><c> have</c><00:41:12.239><c> Goliath</c>

00:41:14.300 --> 00:41:15.679
representing<00:41:14.739><c> sin,</c>

00:41:16.260 --> 00:41:18.019
temptation<00:41:16.699><c> and</c><00:41:17.139><c> death.</c>

00:41:18.139 --> 00:41:19.079
You<00:41:18.199><c> have</c><00:41:18.380><c> David</c>

00:41:19.539 --> 00:41:22.079
representing<00:41:19.980><c> the</c><00:41:20.239><c> Lord</c><00:41:20.460><c> Jesus</c><00:41:20.860><c> Christ.</c>

00:41:23.179 --> 00:41:24.559
It<00:41:23.179><c> can't</c><00:41:23.440><c> be</c><00:41:23.599><c> a</c><00:41:23.760><c> draw.</c>

00:41:25.019 --> 00:41:27.000
You<00:41:25.079><c> can't</c><00:41:25.460><c> wave</c><00:41:25.599><c> a</c><00:41:25.760><c> white</c><00:41:25.900><c> flag</c><00:41:26.159><c> and</c><00:41:26.320><c> say</c><00:41:26.400><c> you've</c><00:41:26.619><c> both</c><00:41:26.780><c> done</c>

00:41:27.000 --> 00:41:28.380
very,<00:41:27.940><c> very</c><00:41:27.940><c> well</c><00:41:28.079><c> now.</c>

00:41:28.739 --> 00:41:31.579
There<00:41:29.179><c> had</c><00:41:29.340><c> to</c><00:41:29.460><c> be</c><00:41:29.599><c> a</c><00:41:29.719><c> winner.</c><00:41:30.159><c> There</c><00:41:30.219><c> had</c><00:41:30.400><c> to</c><00:41:30.519><c> be</c><00:41:30.619><c> a</c><00:41:30.760><c> loser.</c>

00:41:33.300 --> 00:41:35.320
It<00:41:33.440><c> was</c><00:41:33.659><c> a</c><00:41:33.880><c> fight</c><00:41:34.059><c> to</c><00:41:34.280><c> death.</c>

00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:36.480
Jesus

00:41:36.980 --> 00:41:38.360
versus<00:41:37.420><c> sin.</c>

00:41:39.739 --> 00:41:41.139
And<00:41:39.940><c> he</c><00:41:40.139><c> destroyed</c><00:41:40.519><c> sin</c>

00:41:41.599 --> 00:41:43.539
with<00:41:42.039><c> a</c><00:41:42.179><c> blow</c><00:41:42.320><c> to</c><00:41:42.579><c> the</c><00:41:42.679><c> head.</c>

00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:45.360
What<00:41:43.760><c> does</c><00:41:43.860><c> it</c><00:41:43.940><c> remind</c><00:41:44.199><c> you</c><00:41:44.400><c> of?</c>

00:41:48.059 --> 00:41:49.380
I'll<00:41:48.539><c> put</c><00:41:48.679><c> enmity</c><00:41:48.980><c> between</c>

00:41:50.840 --> 00:41:52.780
Only<00:41:51.019><c> two</c><00:41:51.239><c> things</c><00:41:51.519><c> were</c><00:41:51.739><c> connected.</c>

00:41:53.079 --> 00:41:55.000
One<00:41:53.300><c> was</c><00:41:53.739><c> the</c><00:41:53.980><c> serpent,</c><00:41:54.739><c> the</c><00:41:54.880><c> other</c>

00:41:57.500 --> 00:41:59.340
I'll<00:41:57.719><c> put</c><00:41:57.840><c> enmity</c><00:41:58.260><c> between</c><00:41:58.559><c> thee</c><00:41:58.820><c> and</c><00:41:58.880><c> the</c><00:41:59.059><c> woman</c>

00:42:01.260 --> 00:42:03.300
It<00:42:01.440><c> shall</c><00:42:01.619><c> bruise</c><00:42:01.940><c> thy</c><00:42:02.199><c> head,</c><00:42:02.619><c> thou</c><00:42:02.780><c> shall</c><00:42:03.019><c> bruise</c>

00:42:09.260 --> 00:42:10.960
But<00:42:09.400><c> we've</c><00:42:09.679><c> forgotten</c><00:42:09.920><c> to</c><00:42:10.179><c> read</c><00:42:10.360><c> the</c><00:42:10.500><c> word</c><00:42:10.619><c> of</c><00:42:10.820><c> God</c>

00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:16.920
This<00:42:16.760><c> is</c>
